Repetitive TMS over posterior STS disrupts perception of biological motion
Biological motion perception, the recognition of human action depicted in sparse dot displays, is supported by a network of brain areas including the human posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS). We have used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to temporarily disrupt cortical activity within the pSTS and subsequently measured sensitivity to biological motion. Sensitivity was ...
متن کاملMulti-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) reveals abnormal fMRI activity in both the “core” and “extended” face network in congenital prosopagnosia
The ability to identify faces is mediated by a network of cortical and subcortical brain regions in humans. It is still a matter of debate which regions represent the functional substrate of congenital prosopagnosia (CP), a condition characterized by a lifelong impairment in face recognition, and affecting around 2.5% of the general population. Here, we used functional Magnetic Resonance Imagin...
متن کاملMulti-Voxel Pattern Analysis of fMRI Data
The central goal of cognitive neuroscience is to understand how information is processed in the brain. To accomplish this goal, researchers studying human cognition are increasingly relying on multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA); this method involves analyzing spatially distributed (multi-voxel) patterns of functional MRI activity, with the goal of decoding the information that is represented a...
متن کاملA critique of multi-voxel pattern analysis
Multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) is a popular analytical technique in neuroscience that involves identifying patterns in fMRI BOLD signal data that are predictive of task conditions. But the technique is also frequently used to make inferences about the regions of the brain that are most important to the tasks in question, and our analysis shows that this is a mistake. MVPA does not provide ...
متن کاملStatistical inference and multiple testing correction in classification-based multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA): Random permutations and cluster size control
An ever-increasing number of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies are now using information-based multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) techniques to decode mental states. In doing so, they achieve a significantly greater sensitivity compared to when they use univariate frameworks. However, the new brain-decoding methods have also posed new challenges for analysis and statistical ...
